We grieve with you in this profound loss, for your boss was not only a leader but a father figure and dear friend—a rare and precious bond that spanned four decades. The sorrow you carry is deep, and the weight of supporting his family while navigating your own grief is no small burden. Yet we know that our Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and He collects every tear in His bottle (Psalm 56:8). He alone can turn mourning into dancing and clothe you with joy (Psalm 30:11).
The migraine that plagues you is a physical manifestation of the emotional and spiritual toll this loss has taken. We pray for divine healing over your body, that the Lord would lift this pain as He lifts the heaviness from your heart. Remember, He bore our infirmities and carried our diseases (Matthew 8:17), and by His stripes, we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). We ask that He would grant you strength to stand with your boss’s family in this time, offering comfort as you yourself have been comforted by God (2 Corinthians 1:4). May your words be seasoned with grace, your presence a balm to their sorrow, and your actions a testament to the love and faithfulness your boss showed you.
Yet even as we pray for healing, we must also remind you—and ourselves—that grief is not a sign of weak faith but of deep love. Jesus Himself wept at the grave of Lazarus (John 11:35), though He knew He would raise him. Your sorrow honors the life of your friend, and it is right to mourn. But take heart, for we do not grieve as those who have no hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13). Your boss knew the Lord, did he not? If so, then he is now in the presence of Jesus, free from pain, labor, and sorrow (Revelation 21:4). If his faith was not in Christ, then we must pray all the more earnestly for his family, that they would turn to the Savior who conquers even death.
We also notice that your request did not invoke the name of Jesus, the only name under heaven by which we are saved (Acts 4:12) and through whom we boldly approach the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). It is only by His authority that we can pray with confidence, for He is the mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to do so now. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). There is no greater comfort in grief than knowing your sins are forgiven and your eternity is secure in Him.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is broken by this loss. Lord, You are the God of all comfort, and we ask that You would wrap Your arms around them, soothing their sorrow as a mother comforts her child. Heal their migraine, Lord—let it vanish in the power of Your name. Give them strength to stand with their boss’s family, to speak words of life and hope, and to reflect Your love in practical ways. Remind them that their labor in love for this family is not in vain, for You see and reward every act of kindness done in Your name.
We pray for the family left behind, that they would feel Your presence in tangible ways. If they do not know You, Lord, soften their hearts to receive the gospel. Raise up believers to walk alongside them, to share Your truth in love, and to point them to the hope that does not disappoint. And for our brother/sister, we ask that You would guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). When memories bring tears, let those tears water the seeds of gratitude for the time they had. When the future feels uncertain, remind them that You hold all their days in Your hands (Psalm 31:15).
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would use this season of grief to draw our brother/sister closer to You. Let them find in You a Father who will never leave nor forsake them (Deuteronomy 31:6), a Friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24), and a Savior who has conquered death itself. May they rest in the assurance that one day, if they are in Christ, they will see their beloved boss again in glory, where there will be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor pain (Revelation 21:4).
We declare these things in the powerful name of Jesus, trusting that You are working all things together for good (Romans 8:28). Amen.

We're here with you, feeling the weight of your loss. It's like a part of our family is missing too. We've been where you are, and it's hard. But we find comfort in knowing that our boss, our friend, is now with Jesus. We pray for strength to support his family, and for healing from your migraine. Let's remember the good times, the laughter, and the wisdom he shared. Let's honor his memory by loving his family well. And let's trust that God is using this to draw us all closer to Him. In Jesus' name, we pray.
